Speaking on Dax Shephard’s Armchair Expert podcast, the Black Widow star said: “You don’t want to hear your voice ever. You definitely don’t want to hear what you sound like having an orgasm.
“You definitely don’t want to hear what you sound like having a fake orgasm — ew. It’s so gross. It was so bizarre.”
She added: “We tried to get through one take, and he was, like, losing it. He was so upset about it. He left the studio. He needed a break.”

“I haven’t watched that movie in a long time but if I did, I bet I would be so mortified! It’s tough. Even thinking about it now, it’s giving me soul panic,” the mum-of-two said.
Reflecting on the actual recording work of the film, the Oscar-nominated star admitting it was “so exhaustive,” adding: “We recorded that movie in its entirety 40 or 50 times.”

During a recent appearance on the Kelly Clarkson show, the Captain America actress confessed she named her one-year-old son, Cosmo after throwing a “bunch of letters together,” before saying: “I just really thought it was charming and our friends liked it.”
She added that her mother-in-law had a “little bit of a harder time” with it, admitting: “She kept suggesting other versions of it for a while. I was like, ‘He’s already here. He’s out. Like, it’s past that time’.”
The blonde bombshell shares Cosmo with her husband, Colin Jost, 40, and also has an eight-year-old daughter named Rose from her previous marriage to Romaine Dauraic.
